food IS a theme park
There’s nothing quite like the magic of a Disney World vacation! On second thought, we can maybe think of one thing that’s even better…

It’s been a wild time for annual passes lately.
Annual Passholder card
Yesterday, April 20th, all Disney World Annual Passes went back on sale and it was…well, a bit of a mess. For over a year, three out of the four pass types were unavailable for new purchases, so tons of people were looking to get their hands on one yesterday. The website struggled to handle all of the demand, and some people had to wait HOURS in the online queue before they could buy a pass. Eventually, Disney paused the process overnight — but sales resumed this morning. And we were shocked to see the changes.
Today is Thursday, April 20th…a very important date in the realm of Disney World fanatics.
Magic Kingdom
Why is that? Well, today is the day that Disney World annual passes are back on sale! Sales had previously been paused for three of the four passes, but now they’re all available online. However, there’s a catch.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Before you commit to a Disney World vacation filled with coasters, characters, and cheeseburger spring rolls — you’re gonna need to know which park tickets are RIGHT for you…and which purchases you need to avoid entirely.
The biggest Disney fan event of the year is taking place in Disney World this year, but you had to be VERY lucky to snatch up a ticket!
The Contemporary
Last year, it was all about the D23 Expo in Anaheim, but in 2023 the big event is Destination D23 in Walt Disney World. The event will celebrate 100 years of Disney with presentations from Disney archivists and Imagineers, a presentation from Josh D’Amaro (Disney Parks, Experiences, and Products Chairman) about “what makes a Disney experience so magical,” a look at Disney’s “limitless future,” special shopping experiences, and much more. The event will take place from September 8th-10th at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, but the ticket-buying experience gave us a little deja-vu.
Do you want to go to an event where you’ll be surrounded by other Disney fans and get to be the first to learn about new Disney movies, upcoming projects, announcements, and more?

Then you’ll want to be at Destination D23, which is an event held by the official Disney Fan Club, D23. This year’s event takes place on September 8th through the 10th at Disney’s Contemporary Resort at Walt Disney World! Now, we know when tickets go on sale.
If you’re relatively new to planning a Disney World trip or you just haven’t been in a while, you might be seriously confused about park hopping because it’s changed so much.
Park hopping has changed…a LOT
After Disney World reopened, we didn’t even HAVE park hopping, and when it did come back, it was modified. On top of that, we also now have park pass reservations, as well as Disney Genie and Genie+ to deal with, and combined with all that, the ins and outs of park hopping may leave us all scratching our heads. But have no fear — we’re going to do our best to answer ALL your park hopping questions!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
